My boyfriend and I had reservations here after a night out and as soon as I walked in I was wowed. The atmosphere was great! Old Italian decor, cozy and romantic. Our server was superb and very attentive. The fresh-baked bread and olive oil was a fantastic starter. We ordered a small deep-dish pizza which was perfect for the two of us. The pizza was perfectly cooked: soft flaky crust, gooey cheese, delicious sauce! Definitely try this restaurant!!!

Pros: food, service, ambiance, price

Cons: none!

Bella's is a great standby for pizza in the Loop. Unlike most Chicago restaurants, esp. pizza places, the menu contains many healthful options and gourmet toppings. The atmosphere, which looks fairly formal, belies it's reasonable prices. The owners should open up a more casual version which caters better to "on the go" patrons.

After reading the excellent reviews on this website, I had to try Bella Bacino's. We went there for lunch very recently. Quite possibly the worst customer service I have ever experienced. It was not our server, it seamed like every customer in the restaurant was very frustrated with the service. There was no excuse, since it wasn't even crowded, the place was just very poorly managed. No one cared. It took 45 minutes for the famous "stuffed crust spinach" pizza to arrive at our table, and the pizza quality was average at best. This was the only bad meal we had all week while visiting Chicago. Very, very, disappointing.

Pros: none

Cons: Awful experience

This place is THE PIZZA HANGOUT in Chi-Town! The ambience, good service, and great food never keep you seperated by distance from having a great all-around dining experience.

I'm from Eastern Iowa and when I have travelled to Chicago I always have to stop at Bacinos on Wacker. I have been to Chicago like 15 times in the past few years and I have ate at Bacino's everytime but once. All I can say is if you get to Chicago or live there and haven't tried this food...RUN FAST to this place. It's amazing!!! I can fill up on 2 slices and be stuffed for the next day. It's soo good. The best pizza is the Bacino's Stuffed Crust. The prices are decent and the staff is awesome. Very clean and great place to hang out. Very highly recommended!!!!!!!!! This is my all time favorite resturant in the world, that's for sure.

Pros: Great Pizza, Inexpensive, Awesome Place

Cons: Hard to find parking, spots in the area, around Wacker Dr.

I am currently living in CA. Nothing here compares. Everytime I visit Chicago I have to go there! On my last visit I brought a friend from California. He knows it's the best too!!!!! A Veggie pizza and a nice glass of Chianti!
